Engineering behind every PIERRE product
PIERRE combines proven industrial protocols with modern edge computing. Every component is built around the same principle: reliability comes first, features come next.
Three pillars of the platform
PIERRE is not a single product. It is a layered architecture where hardware, firmware, and the cloud each have a specific role and clear boundaries.
Edge hardware
Industrial-grade controllers with redundant power supplies, hardware watchdogs, and 10+ year component lifecycles. Designed to outlast the buildings they live in.
Local firmware
All automation logic runs on the controller. No round-trips to the cloud, no latency, no failure when the internet drops. Updates are signed, atomic, and reversible.
Optional cloud
The cloud handles remote access, multi-property management, and OTA updates. The system never depends on it for core operation. Your building keeps running, with or without internet.
No vendor lock-in, ever
PIERRE speaks the standard protocols of the building industry. Whatever you have already installed, PIERRE can talk to it. And whatever you choose tomorrow, you can swap it in without rewriting your project.
